Thanks Mal, I have been running a similar program for 6 or so months and run it daily. Part of it is the cost of doing rewards programs.

Some of the worse offenders are:
Gator (I know lots of poeple who downloaded this for the 100 beenz you could get at the time) This is one of the most insidious examples of spyware. If a telemarketer called you to try to get this information you would probably laugh in their face, but I know alot of people who use it so they dont have to key in passwords over and over.

Comet Cursor so you can see all those annoying trailing cursors that are everyware

Eeyorerulz, There is no problem in deleting any spyware programs from you computer, as a matter of fact I would do so ASAP. The little windows tend to pop up for 2 reasons, many rewards sites have sponsors that utilize mini popups as an additional source of revenue for the (there are several on milesource). The second most common way is if you use gator, they do it as an additional revenue opportunity as well.

Gee, I must be boring. I only had 1 spy reference. But then again, maybe I didn't do it right.

Thanks Mal, I only had 4 bugs but that was 4 too many.

After reading all the posts here, I decided to download this amazing program. Went to site, then to the download page and it is not available due to some computers having problems with the program. The site did say to keep checking back, but I was disappointed.
I know I must have a bunch of spy stuff on my computer because it seems to crawl these days. Also, for no apparent reason my connect to MSN thing just pops up out of the blue. Sometimes it does this when I am online and most of time when I am not. Weird.
Oh well, I will keep checking out the site in hopes the program will soon be available again.

Would it be possible for someone to e-mail me the .exe file???

Good news!!

I just discovered that if you go to www.shareware.com and search for "Ad Aware", you can download version 5.1.

Now all I have to do is install it and figure out how to work it!!

[pixiedust2]

I can't get the Ad Aware thing to work. Is there ANY other program or any way to manually get this junk off my computer???!!!!! I know I have that Comet Cursor and I want it, and any other spies GONE!!!!

Thanks!

 

[Pink Flamingo]
